<h1 id="sstate_lang/Contents">Steady-state file language</h1>

<p>Steady-state (sstate) files are a complementary tool to solve and analyse
the steady states of more complex models. They allow you to create
steady-state files independent of the original model files, and write the
steady-state equations in different ways, manipulate their structure or
order, split the problem into subblocks, and combine numerical and
symbolic solutions. Using then the <link id="sstate/Contents">sstate objects</link>, you
can compile and run stand-alone steady-state m-file functions based on
your steady-state files.</p>
